Rabwah (/ræbˈwə/; Urdu: ربوہ; Punjabi pronunciation: [ɾə̀ʋːäː]; Urdu pronunciation: [ɾəb.wɑ]), officially known as Chenab Nagar (Urdu: چناب نگر; pronounced [t͡ʃə.nɑːb nə.ɡəɾ]), is a city in Chiniot, Punjab, Pakistan on the bank of Chenab River. It was the headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community from September 20, 1948 when the community relocated from Qadian, India to the newly created state of Pakistan,[3] where the community leased the area of present-day Rabwah from the government to establish its home.[3] This continued until 1984 and the establishment of Ordinance XX. In 1984, the headquarters were moved to the United Kingdom with Mirza Tahir Ahmed, first to London and then in 2019 to the Islamabad compound in Tilford, Surrey.[4]
